Announcing my surgery date, July 27, 2011. I know it is barely July, but it is still July. I am excited, anxious, relieved, and ready to get this show on the road.

Hope all July sleevers are doing well and getting ready for the big day.

Hi Sheila,

I'm havingmy surgery the same day. I totally agree, the 27th can't get here fast enough!! The only thing I'm dreading is the 1 month pre-op thats required by my doc. Good luck!!!

Hi.

We should exchange email address so we can keep up with each others progress. Mine is sheila.pinkney@shaw.ca

Luckily I do not have to do any pre-op dieting like the liquid diet. I have been doing nothing but pre-op dieting since November 30 and I have lost more than the required 10% and I am still following the 1 cup of food 3 times a day. Although I do cheat now and then. My surgeon said that changing to this diet from the very beginning helps to train you to prepare for life post surgery.

Anyway, hang in there, our day will be here before we know it.

Hey Sheila,

You're kicking some serious butt on the preop weight loss!!! Nicely done! I had no preop diet so I went on a self impossed one of my own and struggled to lose 10 pounds! With the success you've already had, you'll be a guaranteed sleeve success story! keep up the good work.

The 27th will be here before you know it! Hang in there.

Mike

Thank Mike. I have worked hard to lose the weight I have. I wanted to make it as easy as possible for me to reach my goal weight. I haven't weighed myself in the past couple of weeks, and I did today, I need to go update my ticker, yay!

Hope all is going well with your recovery. remember, sip, walk, rest - repeat.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
